It is a plug in the wood siding of an old house which is laying on its side. 
Often there will be rows of plugs, indicating that insulation was blown into the walls.

We call them vent plugs. Like Kogel said, it usually means there's blown in insulation; very common with blown in cellulose.

And they are often painted closed like screened vents.
